We love Parkrun.

We attend our local Parkrun every week and one of my kids - who doesn't run - volunteers every Saturday. She is usually chief barcode scanner. If you needed proof that Parkrun is for everyone, here is a picture of her with someone that we only met through Parkrun but she and some friends decided to make her birthday a bit special and baked her a cake to celebrate. As you can see, she was quite pleased! We love Parkrun and Parkrunners!

Wow, that is kind! I love the doggie on the cake, very clever 🎂🐾

Looks just like Harry!

[skysue16 Graduate in reply to mcgurranhouse]

Yes! I thought that. I want one (cake, not Harry - already got a Harry😉)

Park runners and cake what's not to love? What a lovely, lovely gesture. Of course without the volunteers we couldn't run....

Wow sounds great.... I've never heard of park run before... I'm off to google it!

[mcgurranhouse Graduate in reply to buddie17]

Hopefully there will be one in your area - an excellent reason to get up on a Saturday morning!

That's lovely! My sort of parkrun 😊

Saw from one of your older posts that you checked them for hilliness 😂

Well Armagh,palace demense is very very hilly .its the only one I've done and a bit too difficult for me at this stage .

Would welcome your recommendations 🏃‍♀️

Thanks 😊

[mcgurranhouse Graduate in reply to Sarahb18]

Ours is much flatter and only one lap - come to Citypark at Tannaghmore gardens farm - you will be very welcome!

[Sarahb18 Graduate in reply to mcgurranhouse]

That definitely sounds more like it ,I will maybe make that my next parkrun.

Won't be to the end of September though !

I will look out for you 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

[mcgurranhouse Graduate in reply to Sarahb18]

We are hard to miss - the lovely Caroline does barcode scanning every week. Do you live close to Armagh? I did a 10k leg of the Armagh marathon a couple of weeks ago.

[Sarahb18 Graduate in reply to mcgurranhouse]

Yea I live in milford... could walk to the Armagh park run 😂

Will def head to craigavon,sounds much more suitable just having graduated😊

I did Armagh with my youngest daughter who encouraged me round those hills ,shortly after it I had an Achilles injury and I def associate with that .so looking for an easier challenge to build up again 😁

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️
